Double Infiltration (The Sinful 7 of Delite, Texas 4)

“No. It’s true. I wouldn’t date anyone. I can’t. I was worried that he’d find me,” she admitted. Her concern was over Richie and Carl. Robert was a murderer. He did all of Pierce’s dirty work.
“So Danny boy was your one and only lover?” he asked as he squeezed her thigh.
She nodded her head.
“That’s what threw Pierce over the edge. He wanted your virginity. He wanted to be your first and only.”
Another tear rolled down her cheek.
“I have to call him, Juliana.”
She shook her head rapidly. “No, please don’t call him. I’ll do whatever it is you want, Robert. Please.”
“Do not run, Juliana. Whatever you do, don’t run, or I’ll kill your friend, Richie.” She gasped as he pressed his hand between her thighs. His fingers were against her panties, and she grabbed his wrist.
“Don’t fight me. I’ll take what I want from you. You’ll do as I say. Now, we’ve got fifteen minutes to catch up. Let me see for myself how you’ve grown.”
“No. Don’t do this. I said I would cooperate.”
He pressed his hand over her mound, and she gasped as he pried her thighs open. “Your stepfather will expect complete cooperation from you, Juliana. Let’s see how you do on a test run.”
She grabbed his hand and was trying to stop him from hurting her further.

“Excuse me. Is there a problem here?” Susanna interrupted, and Juliana wiped her eyes as Robert pulled his hands from under Juliet’s skirt.
Juliet cringed.
“No problem. Just reacquainting with a friend.”
“Juliet, would you like to introduce me to your…friend?”
Juliet looked up at Susanna. She knew something was up. Susanna would help her to get away from Robert and then she could run.
“Robert, this is my boss, Susanna. She owns Dixie Chix with her husband.”
Susanna didn’t miss a beat as she reached her hand across the table and shook Robert’s hand.
He smiled at her.
“The owner of this fine establishment. Wonderful to meet you, Susanna. You and your husband must be quite proud of what you’ve accomplished.”
“Hey, darling, everything okay over here?” BJ asked as he placed his hands on Susanna’s shoulders.
“This is BJ, Susanna’s husband, the other owner of Dixie Chix,” Juliet stated firmly as she stared at both BJ and Susanna. Her head wasn’t facing Robert, and her friends seemed to get the hint.
“Pleasure to meet you. Are you an old friend of Juliet’s?” BJ asked.
Robert smiled as he pet Juliet’s hair. “Yes, we go way back. But you see, I know her as Juliana, not Juliet. She’s even more stunning than I recall.”
“Well I’m sorry to interrupt. Juliet is needed by the other party she’s responsible for tonight,” Susanna stated as she motioned for Juliet to leave.
“I just need another minute with her. I promise she’ll be back to work in a few short minutes.” Robert winked at Susanna.
“I’ll get back to work, boss, I promise,” Juliet stated.
Susanna looked at BJ, and BJ led her away from the table.
